“…With the rapid growth of smart terminals, blockchain technology has been widely studied (Dinh et al, 2018). This technology not only provides an acentric infrastructure in different fields, including medicine (Griggs et al, 2018;Christodoulou et al, 2020;Resiere et al, 2020), Internet of Things (Novo, 2018;Hang and Kim, 2019), economics (Esfahani and Mohammed, 2018;Allen et al, 2020), software engineering (Litchfield and Herbert, 2018;Erhan et al, 2019;Mendiboure et al, 2020), and even Covid-19 fighting (Yu et al, 2021), but also maintains continuous and tamper-resistant data records in chronological order. Moreover, it has become a hot issue in both academia and industry (Wu et al, ORCID: Xu GUO, https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0803-8620 c Zhejiang University Press 2022 2018; Deng et al, 2019;Feng et al, 2019).…”

Many traditional applications can be refined thanks to the development of blockchain technology. One of these services is non-repudiation, in which participants in a communication process cannot deny their involvement. Due to the vulnerabilities of the non-repudiation protocols, one of the parties involved in the communication can often avoid non-repudiation rules and obtain the expected information to the detriment of the interests of the other party, resulting in adverse effects. This paper studies the fairness guarantee quantitatively through probabilistic model checking. E-fairness is measured by modeling the protocol in probabilistic timed automata and verifying the appropriate property specified in the probabilistic computation tree logic. Furthermore, our analysis proposes insight for choosing suitable values for different parameters associated with the protocol so that a certain degree of fairness can be obtained. Therefore, the reverse question—for a certain degree of fairness ε , how can the protocol parameters be specified to ensure fairness—is answered.

We have identified, mapped and discussed existing research on Blockchain-based solutio n s for intellectual property (IP) protection, an investigation that emerged from a case in antibody production for scientific and medical applications. To that end, we have performed a systematic literature review and created an instrument that classifies the contributions according to the materiality of the object they protect (from immaterial to physical), the type of protection (authorship notarization or prevention of illegal use) and the type of research (conceptual or empirical). Our results can be used to understand which avenues to pursue in the effort to create a new generation of more effective technologyassisted IP protection systems, a priority for 152 signatory countries of the patent cooperation treaty.
